Frankie & Johnny |
| Frankie and Johnny was sweethearts |
| at least thats the way the story goes |
| Frankie bought everything for Johnny |
| from his sports car to his Ivy League clothes |
| He was a man alright, oh but he was doing her wrong |
| just to show you what can happen |
| A friend came running to Frankie |
| she said you know I wouldn’t tell you no lie |
| I saw your man riding in his Jaguar |
| with a chick named Nellie Blye |
| He was your man honey, oh and he was doing you wrong |
| let me tell the story |
| Frankie ran around the corner |
| and peeked in a swinging place |
| there she saw Johnny with the woman |
| he had his arms around her waist |
| aw… he was a man alright but Frankie could see that he was |
| doing her wrong. |
| And oh let me tell you |
| Frankie reached down in her pocketbook |
| and up with a long forty-four |
| she shot once, twice, three times and |
| Johnny fell to the hard wood floor |
| aw… he was a man alright but Frankie shot him because he was |
| doing her wrong |
| But the last thing he told her was |
| Frankie, you know I love you |
| Why? |
| Honey why did you do that? |
| Frankie. |
| I was telling her about you |
| Frankie. |
| you know I love you |
| Frankie. |
| you know that I love you |
| yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
| Now Frankie, you know darn well that I love you |
| Frankie. |
| I’ll always love you baby |
| Frankie. |
| you know I can’t do without you |
| Frankie. |
| you know I love you |
| and I know, I know I was doing |
| you wrong.wrong.wrong.wrong |
| Now Frankie. |
| you know darn well that I love you |
| Frankie…(song fades and ends) |
